Are Haven weekend breaks typically cheaper than midweek breaks?
Midweek breaks at Haven aren’t always more expensive than weekend stays — prices typically depend on the time of year, the park you choose, and current availability. In quieter periods or at certain parks, weekend breaks can be competitively priced, but it's best to just take a look.
If you see your break for cheaper once you've already booked, you can get the difference refunded using our Price Promise.
How far in advance should I book a Haven short break for the best deals?
It's always best to book early, and we've got a few different payment options to help with the cost.
The earlier you book, the more time you get to spread the cost with our Pay Monthly Holidays. When you book, you can also select the date for your set monthly payment.
You can also take advantage of our Price Promise, where if you see your break for cheaper after you book, you can get the difference refunded.
Do I need to pre-book activities for my Haven weekend break, and how?
While you can book activities upon arrival, we recommend booking in advance to ensure availability.
You can book activities up to 12 weeks before the start of your holiday using the My Haven Experience mobile app or website. Payment will be taken immediately for activities.
You can find a list of activities available at each of our parks for the current year here. Activities for future years won't be available until 12 weeks before the park opens for that year. Current activities and prices aren't guaranteed for future periods.
